Safety is Jesus but if you feel like taking a huge risk, go Darwin.

Darwin would be more fun if you know it won't ruin your day if he is benched.
I went with jesus, darwin is also more expensive which is absurd.

————-———-Sanchez
———Cancelo - Trippier - Dier
Salah - Foden - Martinelli - Andreas
———-Haaland - Kane - Toney

Obvious weakness is Andreas (he scored plenty on my bench, but that’ll probably dry up now that I’ve give him a starting place), but happy enough with the rest.

I would like to upgrade Sanchez to maybe Ramsdale. Maybe get Dalot in there. Have all my spare my funds locked into Salah (and Kane) for a couple of weeks though.

Wildcard team:
Pickford (Ward)
Cancelo White Zouma (Dalot, Trippier)
Salah Foden Rashford Martinelli (Andreas, Almiron)
Haaland Jesus Solanke

Thoughts?

I'd have Toney and Mitro instead. Martinelli is enough Arse attack for now, their three away games until the world cup don't scream goals. You can do Mitro to Solanke in two weeks and have the following fixtures from the two of them: lee EVE lee EVE

Also if you think Bournemouth are scoring, why play the cat beater? Rather start Tripps.

Hmmmm good points...

Mitro, Toney and Andreas vs Jesus, Solanke and Almiron - I think you're right.

Similar to mine except I went with Saka over Jesus because Jesus gets a suspension if he gets 1 more yellow.

I've also got:
Pope instead of Pickford
White instead of Zouma
Mitro instead of Jesus

Not much in any of those decisions though.

Good news is Darwin supposedly gonna be benched today.

Bad news is Jesus is one yellow from a suspension and that will be annoying off it happens for the forest game.

My friends just stuck on this - FPL gods here please tell me whats rational :lol:

Should I bench Dalot or Trippier?

Rational thought suggests benching Dalot. But Chelsea are a bit shit going forward I feel..

I had him capped for that bizarre, ‘is this actually real?’, 9-0 against Bournemouth where he did nothing despite having EIGHTEEN opportunities at a single return…

I also just capped him last week, like many.



Indeed. I do think it’s very odd what Klopp is doing with him…

They let Mané go because they didn’t wanna pay him big wages, fought to keep Salah and made him the most high paid player in the club’s history - and then immediately plonked him out on the wing and gave him a role that, if we’re honest, any average PL winger could do…

I mean, why not just sell him in the Summer for a huge fee and sign an average winger to do that role!?

It’s really weird. I’m surprised more isn’t being made of it in the media etc.
This is a media that has barely mentioned their appalling start to the season or Taa and vd looking bottom end of league levels.
No mention of the Mane mistake either.

Yet I opened a paper today and Sourness is saying we're to blame for the Ronaldo issue the other day!

Doh. So probably Firmy was the better choice than Nunez for the 2 week combination in hindsight.
Risky no Pool player v Forest now, hope they produce something unexpected!

Pereira in off the bench.

I have no idea WTF I have done but my captaincy is on Mitrovic!!!!

I have only just gone in to check because i was unsure if i’d left it on Salah or Harland.

This could be a mad ting

It might have changed to him because he was one of the few players you had playing last game week.

Yeah. Salah over de Bruyne looking dubious at the moment. So much for that City goal lighting a fire. We'll see what the second 45 brings.

possibly but I have moved it backward and forward all week and sorted out my team early doors so I didn’t end up with Haaland, Martinelli and Cancelo on the bench again.

Who knows?

Ill either be claiming to be a genius or I’ll be a laughing stock

Might need to take hit to take out Salah next week. Got him on a WC last week and I already hate having him in my team.
